Chapter 61: The NPC has opened the back door for us
In addition to the Heart of the Hellfire, the fragments of the idol handed in were also regarded as evidence of Ning Yi's fight against the cult, and then the City God Temple would of course give corresponding rewards.
System: Your actions please the gods who uphold good deeds, and you receive a new special title: Enemy of Evil.
Enemy of Evil (Title)
Holy Damage +40
When you face a Yin Creature, Normal Attacks deal 115% damage.
Your physical attacks will have a divine attribute that restrains the Yin creatures, preventing them from using the Soul's structural advantage to dodge.
Notes: The grace of the good gods makes your attacks more intense when facing the Yin creatures.
A very useful title, the next time against the upper yin spirit creatures, Ning Yi will be more sure of winning.
When Ning Yi thought that the reward had been distributed and was about to get up to say goodbye, Huo Cheng gave him two more things.
A design drawing, and a plain white card.
"Well, it's an architectural blueprint?"
The Temple of Meditation
The temple dedicated to the gods is filled with a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, and meditating here will allow you to better understand the laws of heaven and earth.
For 50 merits, the player gains +1 Spell Mastery, limited to once per player.
Limited: Metaphysics, Shenmen
Notes: A miniature version of the City God Temple, but with your heart, you can still get something.
The complete architectural design drawing, Ning Yi is still the first time to come across, before he had to make it with the skills of craftsmen, it was only a building material.
"+1 Spell Mastery, that's a good effect."
As for the merit points consumed, Ning Yi also asked from Huo Cheng's mouth to understand, players can get the corresponding merit points by killing the gods of the evil camp.
For example, Ning Yi now has 80 merit points, which happens to be obtained by killing the corpse fire wolf.
"It's not hard to find building materials, they are all common stones, although the amount required is relatively large, but as long as you are willing to spend money, it is easy to collect all from the hands of players."
The functional building of the Meditation Hall is of great strategic significance to the Immortal Guild, after all, players of the two major schools of metaphysics and divine sect can benefit.
γSpell Masteryγ
Ability Power +10%
Cast Speed +10%
When using a magic weapon, the spell effect is increased by 10%.
Restricted: Equip a magic weapon
Remarks: Thinking determines destiny, and knowledge guides the future.
If Sword Mastery is a skill that is of great significance to swordsmen and players who use sword weapons, then Spell Mastery is a boon shared to all legal professions, and it will cover an even larger number of players.
Not to mention the distance, the beneficiaries in front of them are the three immortal members of Drizzle, Rare and Rare and Mu Mu.
"Architectural drawings can only be used once, and it would be too wasteful to use them in the novice village."
Ning Yi had a plan in his heart to move his main forces to Yunlan City, after all, players would basically consider leaving the Novice Village after level 10, and players who wanted to change to a legal profession needed at least level 10.
In this way, it is very inappropriate to build the meditation hall in the novice village.
But the land in Yunlan City is not cheap, so isn't it nonsense, can the land price in the city be the same as the wasteland in the countryside?
What's more, Yunlan City has developed commerce and trade, and any place in this city can be described as an inch of land.
And if you don't have enough prestige, you can't buy it even if you want to.
Fortunately, although Ning Yi is not qualified, he has a way.
In the garrison mansion, a feast was being held at this time, and on the wine table, the garrison lord Cao Tai was drunk with a red face.
The supply of ordnance was sufficient, the chain was not dropped, and the battle ahead was unusually smooth, so he was honored to be on this year's award list.
This is a chance to go straight to heaven!
Not to mention promotions and salary increases, at least he is sitting very firmly in his current position.
If you take a little shit luck, maybe you can get the praise from His Majesty the Emperor, and then you will have more face and lining!
So Cao Tai was very happy, so happy that he called friends to come to the house to celebrate in broad daylight. And when he learned from his subordinates that Ning Yi was coming to him, he personally went out to greet him.
He didn't ignore Ning Yi because he was only a civilian at the moment, but respected Ning Yi because of his extraordinary strength.
After all, this is a friend who can help his career, and no matter how hard he puts his effort and effort into wooing him, it is worth it.
"Welcome, my friend."
"I'm glad to see you again, Lord Garrison."
Cao Tai waved his hand and motioned to Ning Yi not to see outside: "Peerless Sword Cangchen, we are friends now, don't call me an official position, it's too angry." If you don't dislike it, just call me Brother Tai. β
System: Yunlan City Garrison Cao Tai's opinion of you +30.
With a few words, he can increase his reputation in a big man like Cao Tai in Yunlan City, which feels so cool!
And Cao Tai's enthusiasm also surprised the guests at the banquet, looking at their titles and names, you can know that these people in front of them are all upper-class celebrities in Yunlan City, high-ranking NPCs.
Although their level and combat effectiveness are really not worth mentioning in the eyes of players, their identities and the resources they control behind them are not comparable to current players.
Ning Yi came to find Cao Tai, an NPC, naturally not to eat and drink, so he directly explained his intentions.
Cao Tai was also stunned after hearing this: "Do you want to buy a piece of land in Yunlan City?" β
Ning Yi: "Actually, not only in the city, but also in the wasteland outside the city, I also want to buy it and turn it into a manor." β
Build a manor that can produce agricultural products, this Ning Yi still learned from the NPCs, and there are more and more players entering the fantasy world, and it is foreseeable how broad the food consumption market will be in the future, so the earlier the layout, the more beneficial it will be to their own development.
"What, are you having trouble?"
Ning Yi asked suspiciously.
Cao Tai laughed after hearing this: "For others, it must be difficult, but who made you my Cao Tai's brother." β
Indeed, the system stipulates that the purchase of land requires a corresponding reputation value, and there is also a cap on the area.
Ning Yi's current reputation is only 180, and the minimum reputation threshold for wanting to buy land is 200. Moreover, the area of sufficient land is measured in square meters, and it must not exceed twice the reputation value at most.
With a reputation of 200, you can only buy a maximum of 400 square meters of land, which is how many people can be installed unless you build skyscrapers?
You must know that a guild of a slightly higher scale has at least tens of thousands of members.
But strictly speaking, the vast majority of players now, or all the players in the entire Phantom World, are not even qualified to participate in land auctions.
Interestingly, however, this rule of the system is only a guide, not mandatory for NPCs. If the player has a close relationship with certain NPCs, this threshold is not unforgivable.
Black-box operation, ah, this is!
Unexpectedly, in the illusory world, he could actually achieve his goal by going through the back door and relying on relationships, and after knowing the twists and turns in it, Ning Yi was also a little crying and laughing.
Cao Tai pulled a big-bellied lewd fat man from the wine table and introduced him to Ning Yi: "Absolute Sword Cangchen, let me introduce you, this is Cao Zhen, the vice president of the Yunlan City Business Association, if you want to buy land, just look for him." β
Ning Yi glanced at this NPC named Cao Zhen and found that although he was fat as a ball, the outline between his eyebrows was actually somewhat similar to Cao Tai.
Cao Tai smiled sheepishly: "Hehe, that's right, he's my cousin, so you don't have to be polite just slash him and kill him." β
Cao Zhen showed a crying and laughing expression: "Is there such a cousin as you!" β
"Hello Absolute Sword Cangchen, in Xia Cao Zhen, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Looking at Cao Zhen's smiling appearance, he really deserves to be an old fritter who has been galloping in the business sea for half his life, talking and doing things, and he is exquisite: "Brother Cangchen, don't worry, you are my cousin's friend, and naturally I am also my Cao Zhen's friend, I don't dare to say anything else, I can still help with this little matter of buying land." β
He is not bragging, the Cao family is on the three-acre land of Yunlan City, and it is definitely the task of the head snake and earth overlord and the like.
When the goal was achieved, Ning Yi naturally thanked him sincerely: "Then there is Brother Lao Cao." β
"It's a trifle!"
β¦β¦
Sure enough, it was just a trivial matter, 2 hours later, Ning Yi got the good news, someone in the chamber of commerce happened to plan to transfer a street shop in the south of the city, covering a large area, including a warehouse, with a total area of more than 700 square meters.
This was really an unexpected surprise, originally Ning Yi just planned to buy some properties in the city casually to use as the residence of the Immortal Trace Guild.
But now Cao Zhen gave him a big surprise, and he knew with his heels how big the difference was between a guild opened in a bustling business district and a dirty and messy slum.
"Thank you very much, by the way, I take the liberty of asking, what is the price of this transfer?"
"Three thousand three hundred taels, this price can't be lower, you know, after all, it's a street shop in the commercial area."
Indeed, Cao Zhen is telling the truth.
The registered population of Yunlan City is 80,000, but this is the local permanent population, and the total number of people who have moved to the city to work must have exceeded 250,000, including the commercial migrants and the poor who have moved to the city to work.
In addition, the trade roads extend in all directions and the economy is prosperous, in the city, even 5 broken tile houses in the civilian area can be sold for more than 300 taels, not to mention the street shops in the commercial area.
Ning Yi thought about it for a while, but still made a decision: "Although the price is a little expensive, Brother Cao, you are right, this is indeed worth the money, I want it." β
Cao Zhen also breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you can understand the reason, Brother Cangchen, but I still have to remind you, it's best to prepare the money quickly, the seller is in a hurry, you only have 5 days." β
5 days, 3,300 taels of silver, which can only smile for any current player.
300 million players can't get together 3,300 taels of cash?
But considering the current shortage of game currency, this money is really not easy to scrape. Because in the Phantom World, it is not possible to use the mailing function between different cities and regions. At least not yet.
